Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Abstract
Pulmonary arterial hypertension, which is characterized by vascular proliferation and remodeling of small pulmonary vessels, leads to a progressive increase in pulmonary vascular resistance and, ultimately, to right ventricular failure and death. Despite recent major improvements in therapy, no current treatments cure this devastating condition. This article discusses recent progress in developing treatments that prolong patients' lives and improve their quality of life.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
